Ornithine uptake and the modulation of drug sensitivity in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
Trypanosoma brucei, protozoan parasites that cause human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), depend on ornithine uptake and metabolism by ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) for survival. Indeed, ODC is the target of the WHO "essential medicine" eflornithine, which

Metabolomics and lipidomics reveal perturbation of sphingolipid metabolism by a novel anti-trypanosomal 3-(oxazolo[4,5-b]pyridine-2-yl)anilide [PDF]
Introduction: Trypanosoma brucei is the causative agent of human African trypanosomiasis, which is responsible for thousands of deaths every year. Current therapies are limited and there is an urgent need to develop new drugs.

Hydrazinated geraniol derivatives as potential broad‐spectrum antiprotozoal agents
Hydrazinated geraniol derivatives were synthesised and tested in vitro against different parasitic protozoans of clinical relevance, including Trypanosoma brucei brucei, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, Trypanosoma cruzi and Leishmania infantum. Compounds 6, 8, 13, 14 and 15 demonstrated low micromolar activity against the different parasites.

A series of trifluoromethylthiolated cinnamate derivatives have demonstrated promising potential applications as topical antidermatophytic agents. In particular, two derivatives have a lower propensity for cytotoxicity at low concentrations and a low irritant potential profile, even at concentrations 6–30 times higher than the Minimum Inhibitory ...
